Podcasts about Lucky Boy

Welcome to The Pod Squad!We review podcasts every week so you always have something new to listen to.Host of the ‘No More Encore' Podcast Dave Hanratty & Stylist and Journalist Laura Mullet join Andrea to review ‘Lucky Boy'!Image: Tortoise Media

When he was 14, “Gareth” began a sexual relationship with his attractive science teacher at his North London school. Students spread rumors and adults minimized the gravity of the relationship, saying Gareth had lived out every teen's fantasy of sleeping with an older woman. After struggling with his emotions and mental health for thirty-five years, Gareth came to realize Sally-Anne Bowen wasn't his girlfriend - she was his abuser. But his quest to get justice is hampered by those who don't view him as the victim of teen sexual abuse, but as a lucky boy.The four-part podcast “Lucky Boy” from Tortoise Media explores how the explicit encounters began, the consequences of their discovery, and Gareth's attempts to make sense of his life. Host Chloe Hadjimatheou searches for other victims of Bowen while asking why our perception of sexual abuse is different when the perpetrator is an alluring woman and the victim is an adolescent boy. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "LUCKY BOY" BEGIN IN THE FINAL NINE MINUTES OF THE PODCAST.

In this episode we discuss the podcast Lucky Boy, a four part series that asks the question, who gets to be a perpetrator and a victim? This is the story of Gareth (not his real name) whose whole life has been defined by a relationship he had 35 years ago when, as a 14-year-old schoolboy, he fell in love with an attractive young teacher at his school. He spent most afternoons in her bedroom and thought he was the luckiest boy in the world. But when she walked out of his life everything started to unravel.We have a PATREON! click on link below to check out the extra content:PatreonPlease SUBSCRIBE to the podcast and give us a 5-star rating and review.We are on Instagram and TikTok @psychlegalpopEmail: psychlegalpoppodcast@gmail.com#luckyboy #luckyboypodcast #podcast #truecrime #truecrimepodcast #psychology #attorney #therapist #law #lawyer #popculture #popularculture Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to a brand new EIC! Seth Rogen and his long-time collaborator Evan Goldberg have taken aim at the film industry – and no one is safe. A star-studded cameo line-up is the least interesting thing about The Studio, which is a testament to the brilliant writing of this hilarious satire. (TW; we mention sexual abuse from 23 mins in.) Russell Brand has been charged with rape, indecent assault, and sexual assault. We explore the historic public image evolution he's undergone, and his rebrand to a conspiracist. Finally, we're being forced to check-out of the White Lotus and it doesn't feel good!

New Zealand's Phoebe Rings announce their debut album, Aseurai, today with a pair of new singles “Aseurai” and “Drifting.” On Aseurai, due June 6th on Carpark Records, the quartet, led by NZ jazz-school-trained pianist and songwriter Crystal Choi, adds disco and city-pop influences while staying true to the dream-pop sound of their self-titled EP. “Aseurai means around you in the atmosphere, hard to reach, fading away,” Choi says. “It's a poetic expression. You wouldn't say it in normal conversation, but I like that.” While Phoebe Rings was originally a solo project of Choi's, Aseurai marks a shift with contributing songwriting credits from the whole band, which includes Guitar/synthesist Simeon Kavanagh-Vincent, bassist Benjamin Locke and drummer/producer Alex Freer. The four musicians cut their teeth working on other notable NZ projects such as Princess Chelsea, Fazerdaze, Tiny Ruins, AC Freazy, Sea Views and Lucky Boy^. With a more ambitious collection of instruments, Choi says this album heralds the start of true collaboration: “I feel more precious about this LP because it includes everyone's gems.” The broth is richer with more cooks in the kitchen, and the brewing of textures creates a distinct ‘Phoebe Rings' sound.

En 2003, la Mafia k1 Fry sort son premier album collectif : La Cerise sur Le Ghetto. Tout le monde est là : Manu Key, le 113, Intouchable, Rohff, Teddy Corona. Même Kery James a fait le déplacement. Seul manque à l'appel DJ Mehdi. Dans le DVD qui accompagne l'album, le fameux Si Tu Roules avec la Mafia il s'en explique un peu : Après ça, la Mafia k1 fry se moque gentiment de lui, et de ses sons trop rock'n'roll. Mais c'est comme ça : l'énergie créative qui lui reste, Mehdi a envie de la mettre ailleurs. Il veut écrire sa vie avec une autre bande-originale et une autre bande de potes, qui sont les gars d'Ed Banger ou de Kourtrajmé. Entre eux, ils s'appellent entre eux les PDK (Professionnels du Kiff) et les PDV (Professionnels du Voyage) - et ils n'ont pas tort. Pour lui, les choses bougent vite au début des années 2000 : il bosse avec Keziah Jones, Matthieu Chedid, Asian Dub Foundation, il collabore avec Desplechin sur la bande-originale de Rois et Reines, compose celle de Sheitan, Taxi 3, Mégalopolis, il traîne avec la clique de Kourtrajmé. Et c'est grâce à un autre CD/DVD, qui sort 2 ans après celui de la Mafia k1 fry, qu'on peut mesurer la distance qu'il a parcouru. C'est l'époque ‘Des friandises pour ta bouche' : une bande-son qu'il compose par pur plaisir, sans ambition commerciale, artistique, acoustique. Juste, Mehdi essaie de partager la musique qu'il a dans sa tête, et l'esthétique de Kourtrajmé ressemble davantage à sa vie.Et puis en 2006 - il sort un deuxième album en son nom. Cette fois il ne se considère plus comme un espion mais comme un type qui a eu une chance folle d'en arriver là. “Lucky Boy” : c'est le nom de ce disque dont la pochette, iconique, est dessinée par So-Me. Pendant 45 minutes, DJ Mehdi se présente tel qu'il est. Inclassable. On entend de la funk, des nappes digitales. Et quand les gens lui demandent comment il qualifierait ce disque, il l'affirme. C'est un disque de hip-hop, un disque de breakdance. Parce que, dit-il, le hip hop des années 2000 c'est ça, c'est un son nouveau. D'ailleurs, Booba ne s'y trompera pas en lui demandant de faire l'instru de ‘Couleur Ebène' en 2006. Et c'est grâce à cette vision, cette modernité qu'on entendait peu en France à l'époque que DJ Mehdi va s'imposer aussi à l'internationale. Mais ça, c'est une autre histoire, qu'on vous raconte au prochain épisode. Voir Acast.com/privacy pour les informations sur la vie privée et l'opt-out.

La transition de DJ Mehdi vers la musique électronique, elle s'est faite de manière progressive, entre la fin des années 90 et le début des années 2000. Lui qui est pourtant réputé produire les choses à l'instinct et avec rapidité va mettre longtemps avant d'assumer sortir son premier album en son nom, sur son propre label, qu'il appelle Espionnage en hommage à John le Carré. Ce label pourtant c'était déjà un premier pas vers l'indépendance, en tout cas il l'imaginait comme une carte de visite pour présenter la variété de ses goûts et de ses productions. Un endroit où il osait déjà héberger des créations hybrides, surprenantes, certains vieux amis et d'autres choses plus futuristes. Mais oser passer de l'ombre à la lumière, pour de vrai, ce n'est pas simple. Et c'est finalement en 2002 que sort ce disque, The Story of Espion - qui est l'histoire d'un infiltré, d'un caméléon qui tente pour la première fois se montrer sous ses vraies couleurs pour dire son amour pour les mélodies, les entrelacs musicaux. Mais il n'avance pas seul, il s'arme de quelques featurings, avec Diam's, Rim'k, Karlito. Et s'il se perd un peu, c'est peut-être parce qu'il essaie de concilier les deux publics, en espérant plaire à deux mondes qui à l'époque, à part dans quelques sphères un peu puristes, se tournent le dos : le hip hop et l'électro. Ce disque ne marche pas comme il l'espère, et lui restera longtemps en travers de la gorge. Pudiquement, DJ Mehdi l'évoquera comme un regret, sans préciser ce qu'il a regretté. Il dira à d'autres moments que malgré l'échec commercial cet album correspond à une époque de grand bonheur et de libération qui ne s'oublient pas. Et puis sans lui, Lucky Boy ou Megalopolis - qui feront sa joie et son succès quelques années plus tard - n'existeraient pas. Avec le recul, on peut aussi se demander si le public français n'était pas trop divisé pour aimer une œuvre de synthèse comme celle-ci. Mine de rien, réunir dans un seul et même disque deux univers musicaux à ce point étranger l'un à l'autre, c'était une démarche de pionnier. En tout cas, après ce premier album, Mehdi prend un peu de temps et la décision de se réinventer pour de vrai. Et c'est pas grave si ses amis du 113 se moquent de lui quand il porte une petite veste cintrée qui brille et une barbichette. Il apprend à assumer qu'il fait partie d'un nouveau monde, d'une hype qu'il a sans doute raillée quand il était plus jeune. C'est comme s'il était nécessaire pour lui de s'éloigner un peu de son passé. C'est en à partir de ce moment là, en tout cas qu'il commence sincèrement à prendre plaisir en tant que DJ de clubs, associé à Ed Banger. À même pas 25 ans, DJ Mehdi commence vraiment sa seconde vie, et s'apprête à devenir le Lucky Boy qui nous a tous fait danser. Mais ça on le raconte dans le prochain épisode. En attendant, on écoute un morceau évocateur de ce premier album : Breakaway qui parle de rupture et d'échappée belle. Voir Acast.com/privacy pour les informations sur la vie privée et l'opt-out.

Quand son album solo ‘Lucky Boy' sort en 2006 sur Ed Banger, DJ Mehdi a déjà une aura à l'internationale. La BBC ou Pitchfork chroniquent son disque. Mais à chaque fois ils le présentent comme un ‘debut album', et acclament son créateur fort prometteur. Ils ignorent tout du passé de Mehdi. Ils n'ont aucune idée de qui est Fabe, Diam's ou Booba, de l'importance de la Mafia K1 Fry, ou de ces deux décennies de rap français qui ont été façonnées par leur “jeune découverte”. Ils ne savent même pas qu'il a sorti un premier disque 4 ans avant - (The Story of) Espion - passé relativement inaperçu. Mais Mehdi lui ne s'offusque pas de cette réécriture du passé - au contraire. Parfois, il le mentionne en interview, par exemple quand on lui demande comment il connaît le DJ A-Trak. A d'autres moments, DJ Mehdi ne le précise même plus. C'est que l'avenir est devant lui : dans la tournée mondiale de Justice, dont il fait les premières parties, ou avec A-Trak son ami qui est aussi l'ancien DJ de Kanye West avec qui il fait un ‘Walkie Talkie Tour' à travers les Etats-Unis. Lui qui a connu les folies des tournées de la Mafia K1 fry dans les années 90, revit ça 10 ans plus tard. Dans le DVD Across The Universe, filmé par Romain Gavras, pendant la tournée de Justice - on l'aperçoit, timide, rieur, heureux de voir des milliers de personnes transpirer sous le gros son d'Ed Banger. Son son à lui d'ailleurs évolue, et un des morceaux qui incarne le mieux ça est son “Pocket Piano” qui sort en 2008 sur la compilation ED Rec, vol 3. C'est aussi le nom d'un EP qu'il sort la même année, et où on découvre le morceau Tunisia Bambaataa - et ça c'est tout lui. En 2009, il sort des compilations où l'on croise Architecture in Helsinki, Chromeo, Sébastien Tellier - et puis il monte avec Riton un nouveau groupe qu'il nomme Carte Blanche. Parce que c'est plus marrant la vie à deux, et parce que pour la première fois DJ Mehdi a envie de faire un projet qui n'a plus rien à voir avec le hip hop, il veut s'autoriser à commencer autre chose. Pour lui Carte Blanche n'a plus grand chose à voir avec le hip-hop et c'est sans doute comme ça qu'il envisageait une partie de son avenir musical. L'essentiel pour lui, c'était d'essayer des choses, sans oeillères, de traduire en son les idées qu'il avait dans sa tête. En 2011, c'est ce qu'il avait raconté à Isadora dans un bout de son Dans Les Oreilles jamais diffuséEn 2011, un soir du 13 septembre, DJ Mehdi fait une chute mortelle chez lui, entouré de ses amis. Le choc est immense, pour ses proches, pour ses amis, pour le public. Toute l'industrie musicale est en deuil. Il n'y a pas de mots pour dire l'injustice d'un tel accident, mais on peut tenter de raconter l'héritage qu'il a depuis laissé, et c'est ce qu'on fera dans le dernier épisode de cette nova story consacrée à DJ Mehdi.

Kiss actor ka talent bahar aa raha hai baar-baar. BJP ke liye mera dher sara pyaar. Aur iss hafte tha Diwali ka tyohaar. Swagat hai aapka News Arrest Diwali Special me mere yaar.

In 's, 'Lucky Boy, Solimar Castro Valdez is eighteen and drunk on optimism when she embarks on a perilous journey across the US/Mexican border. Weeks later she arrives on her cousin's doorstep in Berkeley, CA, dazed by first love found then lost, and pregnant. This was not the plan. But amid the uncertainty of new motherhood and her American identity, Soli learns that when you have just one precious possession, you guard it with your life. For Soli, motherhood becomes her dwelling and the boy at her breast her hearth.  Kavya Reddy has always followed her heart, much to her parents' chagrin. A mostly contented chef at a UC Berkeley sorority house, the unexpected desire to have a child descends like a cyclone in Kavya's mid-thirties. When she can't get pregnant, this desire will test her marriage, it will test her sanity, and it will set Kavya and her husband, Rishi, on a collision course with Soli, when she is detained and her infant son comes under Kavya's care. As Kavya learns to be a mother - the singing, story-telling, inventor-of-the-universe kind of mother she fantasized about being - she builds her love on a fault line, her heart wrapped around someone else's child.  Lucky Boy is an emotional journey that will leave you certain of the redemptive beauty of this world. There are no bad guys in this story, no obvious hero. From rural Oaxaca to Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto to the dreamscapes of Silicon valley, author Shanthi Sekaran has taken real life and applied it to fiction; the results are moving and revelatory. Shanthi Sekaran is a writer and educator from Berkeley, California. Her writing has also appeared in The New York Times, Salon.com, LA Review of Books and Huffington Post. She teaches creative writing and literature at Mills College in Oakland, CA.

An optimistic young Mexican woman gets pregnant while trying to cross the border into the states.  An Indian-American woman struggles with infertility. When undocumented Solimar is detained by the state, Kavya and her husband foster and then fall in love with her little boy. They’re good people, the law is on their side, and it’s hard not to root for them, but we’re forced to ask ourselves - what defines parenthood? Is it the biological connection or is it the daily grind of feeding, changing diapers, and tending to all their needs? In addition to a mother’s love, Lucky Boy (G. P. Putnam's Sons, 2017) deals with immigration, undocumented workers, the struggle between haves and the have-nots, infertility, survival, and love. Shanthi Sekaran is a writer and educator from Berkeley, California. Lucky Boy was named an IndieNext Great Read and an NPR Best Book of 2017. It won the Housatonic Book Award and was a finalist for Stanford University's Saroyan International Prize for Writing. Her essays and stories have also appeared in The New York Times, Salon.com, and the LA Review of Books. Sekaran is a member of the San Francisco Writers' Grotto, an AWP mentor, and she teaches writing at Mills College. She was born in Sacramento, is the daughter of immigrants from India, and has two older brothers, a husband, two young sons, and a cat. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Lucky Boy^ Interview by Jamie Green on Radio One 91fm Dunedin

Thunder storms don't stop us from podcasting! We have 4 excellent reviews this week!

You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each of us: a surprise book present, an accessory to make binge-reading the next big thing, and choosing books for a trip. Next, we tackle what we are currently reading, just two titles from each of the three of us because that still gives you a whole stack to check out. Our deep-dive this week delves deep into the ins and outs of running a book club. And this episode is for you whether you have a group of friends that meet at a coffee shop each month or you are looking for a group of bookish friends on the internet so you can “book club” in your PJs! We even toss around some ideas for those of us (like Meredith and Kaytee) who are “book-club challenged” in that our inner rebel shows up whenever someone says we have to read a certain title. As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we’d like to press into every reader’s hands. This week we have some classic dude-friendly literature, a lovely little fun romp, and a sweeping American and African family story.

Writers Cristina Henriquez and Edwidge Danticat talk with V.V. Ganeshananthan and Whitney Terrell in an episode about the urgent issue of keeping immigrant families together and resisting their mass incarceration and detention. Henriquez, author of The Book of Unknown Americans, talks about the tragic real-life inspiration for her short story “Everything Is Far from Here” and the differences between Obama-era immigration policy and the policy of the current administration. Danticat, a National Book Award Finalist and author of The Art of Death: Writing the Final Story and Breath, Eyes, Memory, discusses the treatment of Haitian immigrants, the impossible choices immigrants face while pursuing better lives for their families, and what might lie ahead for detained children after the news coverage fades.

Tens of thousands of undocumented women have made the journey across the southern border of the United States. The trip is expensive. Some migrants are raped by guides or fellow travelers. That was Soli's story in the novel "Lucky Boy," by author Shanthi Sekaran. Soli arrives in the U.S. pregnant and tries to juggle motherhood and work as a nanny in Berkeley, California. When immigration agents find out about her, she's faced with deportation and possibly being forced to relinquish her child to adoption. That's when her path crosses with an Indian-American couple wanting to adopt. Soli may have to accept that someone else could love her child. Through the story of one "Lucky Boy," Sekaran explores the complexities of U.S. immigration and adoption policies. She sat down with CapRadio's Donna Apidone to talk about it.  Interview Highlights Why is this boy "lucky"? He's lucky in a very sincere way because he is loved very much by these two mothers and by Rishi [his foster mother's husband]. So, in that he's lucky, you know, he's wanted. But also there's some irony in that. [He's] lucky because he doesn't know — people don't know where he's going to end up. His fate is sort of thrown to the wind because of this love, because of these people who have had him and who want him. The book is named for the child. How do you get from these people who are very integrated into each other's lives and still keep that focus on the child at all times? How do you get all that on paper? It's all about the child really. It's about an unborn child. It's about Ignacio, the son of Soli. Rishi has a line where he says, "That's all people want. They just want healthy babies." So that's what the people in the novel all kind of center around, whether they know it or not. They're distracted by all these other things but I think the core of the book is Ignacio. You wrote a piece for The New York Times late last year called "The Privileged Immigrant" and you said that Indians are different in coming to the U.S. because they have a path. Can you talk about that? Yeah. So this piece I wrote for The New York Times talked a little about my parents and the fact that they were brought over. They came over to the U.S. in the mid ‘60s because the U.S. was recruiting foreign medical graduates. And so it was very hard for them. They were up in Albany, New York. You know I think around 1960 there were like a total of 12,000 Indians in the entire United States. So it was a lonely experience and it was physically cold and it was probably emotionally very isolated.  My point was that my parents and South Asians of their generation, especially who were brought over on things like the foreign medical graduate program, were given a visa. They were given a training program to be in here. My father and mother were given an apartment in Albany. It was very hard but they had these little steps put in place for them that allowed them to have a job, earn money, save money, create credit history. It allowed them to take the steps that they needed to take to establish a stable life in this country. And now we have a lot of people in America who were not given this path. They work here. They make money. There are technically legal ways for an undocumented immigrant to start something like a bank account. But it's terrifying to walk into a bank, you know, if you're undocumented and you could be picked up at any moment, to walk into a bank and give them your name and be officially then on the record. So that has ramifications for generations. They don't save the money. They don't establish credit history. They cannot integrate themselves into the economy and into the system of succeeding the way that maybe my parents could. Donna Apidone interviewed Shanthi Sekaran on Feb. 7, 2017.

In this episode of AAWW Radio, we’re featuring writers and activists confronting our immigration system that threatens families of people of color in this age of xenophobic resurgence. In early 2017, Shanthi Sekaran released her newest novel Lucky Boy which follows an undocumented eighteen-year-old Chicano mother who winds up in immigration detention--causing her son to be adopted by an upper class Desi foster mother. To write the book, Shanthi relied partly on the "Shattered Families" report produced by the racial justice organization Race Forward. Race Forward Senior Strategist and author Rinku Sen also joins us to break down the mechanisms of structural racism and how immigration enforcement splits apart children from their families. Their conversation is moderated by Kavita Das, former Race Forward staff member and author of the upcoming biography Poignant Song: The Life and Music of Lakshmi Shankar.

For episode 9, V.V. Ganeshananthan and Whitney Terrell talk with Ron Charles, editor of The Washington Post Book World and Shanthi Sekaran, author of Lucky Boy, about obscenity, literature, and immigration. In the first half of the show, Charles leads us through the famous 1933 obscenity trial involving James Joyce's Ulysses and the 1964 trial involving Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer. Then Shanthi Sekaran talks to us about Trump's infamous shithole comments, his immigration policy, and how she believes the language surrounding immigration—"ICE," "illegal alien"—is more profane than any curse word. Plus: Whitney reads the dirtiest passage he can find in Ulysses and embarrasses his mother. Readings: Ulysses by James Joyce; Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller; The Awakening by Kate Chopin; Lucky Boy by Shanthi Sekaran.

Behind appearances are stories — and sometimes they're complex, frightening stories that people hide. People milling through The Cheeseboard on Shattuck Avenue are harboring heart-stopping secrets in Shanthi Sekaran's page-turner, ‘Lucky Boy.' That normal-looking guy at the Chinatown restaurant is actually fleeing a scandalous Hong Kong celebrity career, in ‘Deceit and Other Possibilities' by Vanessa Hua, also a columnist with the San Francisco Chronicle. Characters cope with mental illness in ‘The Border of Paradise' (“stunning,” said the New York Times) by Esme Wang, who also blogs about cultivating resilience amidst disabilities. Start the morning with pathos, truth and wisdom from three dazzling fresh voices.

  Hey there word nerds! Today I have the pleasure of interviewing Shanthi Sekaran, author of the new novel Lucky Boy, a book that has been getting a lot of pre-publication buzz and is an Indie Next Great Read pick for January 2017.   In this episode Shanthi and I discuss: The importance of fiction in humanizing different groups of people by bringing them and their experiences to life on the page. Using both research and imagination to create a vivid experience for your readers, and in particular how she crafted the dramatic immigration scenes in her book. Connection to the point of view of the characters and how to capture their experiences and emotions with authenticity. Crafting her book around the theme of motherhood, and how “mother” can mean very different things to different people. The universality of the “immigrant experience” in America, and how there are many common threads between immigrants from wildly different experiences. How there are also stark differences between immigrants with different levels of privilege, and how it’s important for us to understand these varied experiences. Why it’s important that writers live their lives and be present in the world. Plus, her #1 tip for writers. About the Author Shathi teaches creative writing at California College of the Arts, and is a member of the Portuguese Artists’ Colony and the San Francisco Writers’ Grotto. Her work has appeared in Best New American Voices and Canteen, and online at Zyzzyva and Mutha Magazine. A California native, she lives in Berkeley with her husband and two children. Lucky Boy Lucky Boy is a moving story about two unforgettable women in California: an undocumented Mexican woman and an Indian-American wife. Both love the same child but can’t have him. The novel beautifully weaves together the themes of motherhood, immigration, infertility, adoption and minority life in America (and tackles immigrant detention centers) and is a must-read in our current political environment.

The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Sports Illustrated Senior Writer Cameron Morfit, Author of Lucky Boy. LUCKY BOY Sometimes only the Black Sheep can make a Family Whole by Cameron Morfit Lucky Boy is a middle-grade novel about 13-year-old misfit Max, whose glasses don't fit right; his pretty and popular 15-year-old sister, Sadie, who is on the verge of making some bad decisions; and their developmentally delayed little brother Gabe, whose inability or unwillingness to talk confounds even the experts. The story begins with a small fire and the unannounced arrival of the Buras family's self-professed “black sheep,” Dewey Tomlinson, who is some kind of cousin to their mother. Max invites “Uncle Dewey” to school for show and tell — the man has a very cool tow truck, after all — and they later become friends while making regular visits to the video poker sites in town, raking in the winnings. Dewey, a beaten-down loner with a shady past, is what polite society might call a lost cause, but he begins to find himself in Boise. He insists Max, his second cousin twice removed, is a lucky boy, and his “good mojo” is making the machines pay out. Against his better judgment, Max — also a lost cause, popularity wise — begins to believe it, too. He starts to think maybe he's fated to be something more than misfit Max with the misshapen head. Sadie, meanwhile, rethinks her rush to grow up. And when Max, Gabe and Dewey link hands on Halloween night, and Gabe suddenly begins to find his voice for the first time, Max starts to suspect larger forces at work. Lucky Boy is a meditation on luck, alchemy, and life's unlimited capacity for surprise.
